Most of the times company says that a beverage which is considered and labeled as “fruit juice”, is 100% pure fruit juice. This is the main standard that is used to define their products. Like in UK, the term fruit juice can only legally be used to describe a product which is 100% fruit juice, as required by the Fruit Juices and Fruit Nectars (England) Regulations.

However, the term “juice drink” can be used to describe any drink which includes juice, even if the juice content is 1% of the overall volume.

A blend of fruit juice(s) with other ingredients, such as high-fructose corn syrup, is called a juice cocktail or juice drink. Most of the companies provide a label to the juices they are packing and selling so it is a must to ensure about its purity according to the term used there. Obviously some of them are there which provide a fruit juice labels that may be misleading as they want to hide the actual content of it. “No added sugar” is commonly placed on labels, but the products are often made from “reconstituted concentrates.” This can have the same effect as adding sugars to the beverage as the naturally occurring fructose is still unhealthy for the consumer. It is difficult for the consumer to know the contents of the concentrates.
